Random Transformers Headcanons

transformers can see more colors than humans can. Cameras use something called the bayer color filter, which is a grid of red green blue squares that is taken and pixelated- by the same principles, optical sensors could have multiple color receptors (like add magenta and yellow)

Bots with more than two optics can pick up more colors (shrimp vision). Empurata victims lose color receptors in their optic, reducing vision to standard RGB

Depending on modifications, can see in UV, infrared, heat vision, etc. Earth is a sensory overload at times.

Giant seekers like shuttles and space stations sing in ultrasonic waves, often to communicate and identify, as each has a unique song. They're space whales :D

Some bots have UV paint lines on their armor that glow under certain conditions/in response to their spark feeling strong emotions. Could've been an old fashion fad or simply exposed energon nerving in their plating.

Most bots do not have true gray colored plating- it resembles too close to a dead shell and sometimes, some bots are taken to smelting pits because of this. The most common bots to have gray paint are miners and gladiators because it hides debris and injuries better, but also because it keeps them from having any individual identity. Megatron keeps his gray colors to honor his time as a miner and gladiator.

Seekers only stay to their trines/sparklings when sleeping, but ground alts often seek out large groups for security. When grounders are in new environments, often there will be one bot on watch and the rest huddled together at the camp ground

The lost light actually separates bots because of Magnus being an ass and not understanding sleeping dynamics cause it's been so long since he had his brother

Shuttle bots and larger prefer to sleep in their alt modes with their occupants safely tucked away

(last headcanon inspired by an instagram reel I saw by astragirlxx about sleeping groups of autobots)

That's all I've got for now!!!! :DDD

This was the first thing I thought of when I saw this post and I laughed a little too hard about it

This is what I imagine the frontline Supreme Removers' team dynamic as (please tell me someone still remembers this meme, I couldn't find the original for the life of me)

I gave alt!Ladybug her Toxinelle hairstyle so it's more clear it's her, also I just like the space buns much better.

Finally went back to designing some OCs after like half a year of not doing that (sad!). This one's lowkey skeleton and radiation themed because of awesome

She/her for the character. Reblogs always appreciated

something something the illegal street racers have now switched to being bikers and Bumblebee and Prowl decide to take part (the Race comic lives in my head rent free. the universe must let prowl give into more silliness and sassiness) as a teamwork exercise but things get out of control. possibly cuz of it again being a rigged deathly racing..

also V

cute as hell. what are you worried about prowl. he's the one getting attention. not you. smiles

Robbie Williams' open letter to his former manager after they both appeared in Louis Theroux's Boybands Forever documentary is really quite something...

Drawing something for every episode of Ethersea - Episode 11 (prev - next)

hearing Zoox telling the Clam that it’s ok to be different despite him clearly not feeling that way about himself specifically, bc of how he generally feels abt being different from other Brinarr, makes me feel really normal btw

(plus a bonus page for funsies)
